Everyone should have a chance to live in another country. I'm an American who's lived in five countries and am currently living in France with my lovely French wife. This blog is about finding opportunities abroad and the challenges you'll face.

Stowaway

No significant post today due to a sick baby. Instead, I'll share an interesting news article about a stowaway. Among the things I learned: the captain of the ship is responsible for the well-being and transportation of the stowaway until a port is reached which can legally accept the stowaway. In this case, the nationality of the stowaway couldn't be determined and the captain was forced to continue caring for the stowaway after both French and US authorities refused to accept the man. I haven't been able to determine the man's fate. Anybody?
